More About the Author

Patricia Simpson grew up in the wilderness of Western Montana, where it meant a 3-1/2 hour drive just to buy shoes. When she was young, the iPod hadn't yet been invented, and there were no radio stations in the area, so on the many long drives for shoes, Patricia amused herself by reading novels or creating her own stories in her head. She was encouraged to write by her sister, who always asked to be read what she had written so far that day, her Egyptian-born English teacher in junior high, and then again by a creative writing professor at the University of Washington. Instead of seeking a writing degree, Patricia chose to pursue a BA in Art and has worked as a graphic artist/web developer at the University of Washington since 1982. Patricia still enjoys painting almost as much as she loves to write.

Ms Simpson has won numerous awards for her fiction, including Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Award, Career Achievement Award, and has been a finalist in the RITA awards and for Best Indie Paranormal of the Year.

Her Scottish husband encourages her to accompany him on his frequent business trips around the world, and whenever possible Patricia goes with him to scope out spooky historical places to use as the settings of her books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jade, March 31, 2003
By 
K. Hill (Windsor, NC USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Jade (Paperback)
Jade is the best book I've read in a very long time. I had a hard time putting it down. The pace is fast. Jade Brennan suffered a car accident and lay in a coma. After two years, she's come home to claim her two year old daughter that she's never seen. Jade comes home a day early only to find that her brother is not willing to give up custody. A strange man shows up at her door asking about the necklace she's wearing and then gets her involved in a revival ceremony. The ceremony revives Connor MacKenzie, the previous owner of her brother's apartment building, who died in 1886. Connor and Jade marry to help Jade gain custody of her daughter Sabrina. It isn't long before Jade is falling in love with Connor and he with her. It's a funny and touching book with loveable characters. My only complaint is that the author has Sabrina, a two year old, talking like she's four at times. Otherwise, I loved the book. This is the first book I've read by this author and I can't wait to explore more of her work.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good!, January 9, 2005
This review is from: Jade (Paperback)
I was a little skeptical when I first picked up this book b/c I'm not into the older versions of romance. I prefer the newer suspense type. But I was pleasantly suprised by Jade. The chemistry between Connor and Jade was very entertaining to read. The gall of Jade's brother and sister-in-law at the beginning of the book seriously had me tense with anger. They refused to let Jade even see her 2 year old daughter, Sabrina, whom Jade had never seen before. I could totally understand Jade's frustration and anger, her despair. Its a lovely story with roiling emotions that'll make your swear and laugh with a wonderfully beautiful ending. I throughly enjoyed this book. I highly recommend!
